RONALD REAGAN CHESTERFIELD AD // Circa 1948
$175.00
RONALD REAGAN~! Despite appearing in multiple Chesterfield advertisements, like this one in 1948 (ish) Reagan did not smoke cigarettes – He did smoke a pipe, as he wrote in his autobiography, An American Life, that he took up the habit in college because it thought it looked cool; ‘”…I’d never liked cigarettes but I was impressed by a flurry of ads in those days in which a woman said, ‘I like a man who smokes a pipe.’ – I’d always liked the look of someone smoking a pipe, so I saved up and bought one – But I never inhaled – I just sucked in the smoke, tasted it and then blew it out – and I only did that during the offseason when I wasn’t playing football –
This Ad Copy, can be yours – you may not be a cigarette fan, or a Reagan fan but as far as ‘presidential memorabilia goes’ it is spot on!
